Ex-Representative Walter M. Chandler of New York,! just returned from Europe, in describing conditions in Io \thonla, Letvia and Lithuania before a congressional comm |tee only a few days ago, said: “Wan, haggard, emaciated forms, mere ghosts of human beings, with tattered rags hanging about them and skeleton} jhands extended appealingly for help, are sickening and ter- jrifying sights that greet the traveler on every hand. Thousands perished in a recent blizzard that swept over Es-| thonia, and hundreds of babes were found frozen at their mothers’ breasts.” In Finland a similar condition exists, with 120,000 chil- dren weakened from lack of proper food and without warm \clothing, facing the rigors of the Baltic winter. The worst) |point in Finland is in Helsingfors, where the combined lack ‘of food, fuel and clothing has produced terrible suffering. | To the east of this hunger-ridden strip reachi Central Europe, from Jugo-Slavia, on the Adr \land on the Baltic Sea, lies another famine-stricken country} in the most defperate straits. This is the land of perennial suffering and hunger—Armenia. WORST CONDITIONS IN WORLD EXIST IN RUSSIAN-ARMENIA Colonel William N. Haskell, reporting to the American relief commission on conditions in Armenia, says: “The destitution in Russian-Armenia exceeds anything 1 have seen or heard of in the world today. It is a fact im- possible of contradiction that the Hoover food supplies ex- tending into this winter have solely and exclusively saved the Armenian nation from starvation, and it is equally certain ' Starts | The Apollo club of Seattle will In Libau 17,500 children must be given quick relief if get | . |Wili Ask Penalty that if these foodstuffs stop, most of the population will die during the coming winter. Unless some program of relief is set up immediately, between 700,000 and 800,000 will die of starvation.” Of this Armenian population so sorely pressed for food, largely homeless, hungry, disease-ridden, 285,09) are children in the most dire straits. Such is the barest outline of the desperate situation in Central Europe as sketched by the latest reports reaching Washington. The details in any one of the countries named would fill a volume and would be such a recital of unbe- lievable hardship, suffering and abject misery that the hor- rors of war, bad as they were and terrible as the hardship they entailed, would seem desirable—even weleome—by com- parison. As sketched above, the figures present only the numbers of children actually within the starvation line. In children alone the total makes 4,997,000! But in addition to the chil- dren there are men and women—young, middle-aged, old— numbering many millions more, who, though perhaps able to withstand for a somewhat longer time the (nak. of nourishing food, who can maintain existence for g time on the scant, coarse rations they are able to scrape up, are, nevertheless, in danger of death either from actual starvation or from disease to which their weakened condition makes them easy victims. Red Cross authorities declare that, unless relief of a sub- stantial nature is provided, outside any possible internal channels, not less than 10,000,000 people are in danger of death in these countries in the next four months. RELIEF ALREADY PROVIDED GIVEN ONLY TO STARVING CHILDREN A measure of relief is now being given in these countries thru the European children’s fund of the American Relief administration. It is meeting, so far as is possible, within the funds at its disposal, the most immediate demands for relief. But it cannot feed all. It is forced to turn away from its canteens daily hundreds and thousands of hungry children. To be hungry is not enough to win food. The child must be in extremis, at the point of actual starvation, before a saving bowl of soup or cup of cocoa may be secured, It is only by this seemingly heartless method that the maximum of lives may be saved, an official of the children’s fund explains. With the money and the foods at its dis- posal, the work must be confined only to those cases where refusal virtually means certain death. “The most terrible sight to be seen in all Europe,” says Herbert Hoover, chairman of the American Relief admin- istration, who organized the ‘children’s relief work with funds carried over from general relief appropriations, “is the children crowding around the doors of the food kitchens, hungry, pitifully begging for food, but ‘denied food because, altho they are hungry, they are not in imme- diate danger of death from starvation. We are able to take only the most desperate cases and give them a supple- mentary meal of 600 calories day until we have built them up out of the immediate starvation zone. “Then we must turn them away to make room for others in worse condition. In most cases it is probable that the children we turn away this week, as above the line of imme- diate danger, are back below the danger mark within a few weeks and must be restored to our lists for another period. “Our effort is to carry thru the greatest possible number till spring brings a new supply of food in their own coun- tries, but the $18,000,000 with which we started the fund will not enable us to do more than feed the extreme cases.” BEST THAT CAN BE DONE LEAVES TWO MILLION FACING STARVATION The extent to which this «‘ildren’s fund is relieving the situation, however, may be 1 from the following fig- ures of children being fed in \. . sbove-named countries: Poland 1,800,000 Czecho-Slovakia . . 600,000 Austria 290,000 Hungary 100,000 Jugo-Slavia 195,000 Finland 87,000 Letvia 60,000 Esthonia 80,000 Lithuania 40,000 Armenia 150,000 This makes a total of 2,902,000 children in extreme other children admittedly under-fed and hungry, but unable to secure any of the limited relief rations now being admin- istered in their countries.
